Position Summary:
Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey is seeking a Research Associate III in Radiation Cancer Biology at Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey.
The primary purpose of the Research Associate III position is to, under direction of the PI, perform technical research activities and assist in the conduct of highly specialized research in cancer biology. This position will provide essential support, by creating unique cell and mouse lines, for the collaborative research by a team of investigators funded by a National Cancer Institute program project grant that is focused on understanding how the BRCA protein network suppresses tumorigenesis and impacts therapeutic response, which is critical to improving the outcome of cancers associated with homologous recombination (HR) and other DNA repair defects. Incumbent is expected to maintain cell and mouse lines, use CRISPR/Cas9 technology to create gene-edited cell lines, and validating the lines created. Specific tasks used may include passaging/maintaining cell lines, electroporation/transfection of cells, preparation of cells for cell sorting, isolation, analyses and banking of cell clones, mouse breeding and genotyping, generating mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), and record keeping, etc.
Among the key duties of this position are the following:
